A sailboat watercolor and oil pastel sketch; new podcast dropped this morning; DMSO
I began a sketch yesterday, but didn't finish it until today (Tuesday's are our busy day around here, picking up groceries and running errands). I'm fairly pleased with it, but always feel I could do better. I think for me, right now, it's getting the sizing correct. For instance, I think I got the line between the water and the sky right, and the size of the sailboat. But the white watercolor paint doesn't do anything on the page, so typically, for anything white I leave it alone and let the […] -
A watercolor and oil pastel fractal design
I played around with the watercolors yesterday, after working up a fractal type of design from a page out of an old calendar. I couldn't replicate the fractals, but I loved how the watercolors flowed over the oil pastels on the page! I may make more of this kind of art! Calendar fractal design (top); My "fractals in blue" oil pastel/watercolor art. --Sheila Murrey In the coming days, I'll be sketching more images out of my husband's 100+ framed paintings collection--so stayed tuned.

Two new sketches using pencil, marker and oil pastels
I did two new sketches from out of my husband's 100+ framed paintings collection and thought you'd enjoy them. This is my butterfly sketch in progress, because I had no idea that I would finish it yesterday due to all the white dots (so much black to color in), and it did take some time: Butterfly artwork of Richard's on the left; my version of the butterfly sketch on paper on the right (in progress). Though I did make a little mistake on the top of the rose, and even laid awake last night […]https://sheilamurrey.net/2026/08/13/two-new-sketches-using-pencil-marker-and-oil-pastels/

Tiger sketch using pencil, marker and oil pastels
I looked through some of my husband's 100+ framed paintings to see if I thought I might attempt a sketch of a few more, recall the lions: This is a face on tiger. I love Richard's artwork. He always creates a mat for his art as well, so we just print and frame. Easy! He used to sell these for $100 each, but has taken his artwork down due to low sales and too many scam-like emails coming in to him. Tiger artwork of Richard's on top; my version of the tiger sketch on paper. I got a little […]https://sheilamurrey.net/2026/08/12/tiger-sketch-using-pencil-marker-and-oil-pastels/

Child on tree swing sketch using pencil, marker and oil pastels
I felt inspired, since receiving my new watercolor kit (Thanks to Walmart! See my next article where I explain the program and show you the kit), that I got to sketching and painting right away yesterday afternoon! I decided to attempt another one of the sketches I've held onto for months (from Linda Lewis' blog). Let me know what you think of it: Linda Lewis' child on tree swing sketch on laptop and my version of child on tree swing sketch on paper --Sheila Murrey My child on tree swing […]https://sheilamurrey.net/2026/08/10/child-on-tree-swing-sketch-using-pencil-marker-and-oil-pastels/

Since my truck broke down a few weeks ago, I've been riding my bike for 100% of local trips, about 100 miles per week.
Overall I'm very pleased with how my fitness for riding is improving, but there is one problem: my shoulders are killing me! It's not like the muscle soreness I got in my legs when I first increased my riding, it's been getting worse not better over time. I don't have any general loss of range of motion, but it feels hot and tingly all the time and I get stabbing pain at random times when I move my arms.
Someone I know suggested finding a physical therapist who understands cycling to advise me on riding posture and exercises I could do, and another person suggested getting a professional bike fitting, and another suggested I just need to raise my handlebars to get weight off my arms. Has anyone here dealt with this issue? What helped you?

Tomorrow's the day!
9+ months of increasing pain and immobility resulting in frozen shoulder on my (dominant) right side, hopefully to be substantially reduced with a #HydroDialation procedure 🏥💉.
Looking forward to sleeping through the night, closely followed by being able to get dressed without intense pain, and hopefully running!
On the plus side I'm almost #ambidextrous, and my legs have benefited from 6 months of PT being leg day 🤪🙈💪

My first vertical mouse has arrived. So strange, but I know that in the long run it will be worth it. I mainly have shoulder problems sometimes, and I wanted one a long time ago. I could try 3-4 of them last week, and I ordered a similar one, which is a lot cheaper, but good for a tryout. I will expect about a week to get used to it, and I hope it helps later.
